Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Have another go when you feel in a better place LGJ. You really donโ€™t have to understand everything about the game to give it a go, just set a home point, log a run and see what happens. The more you play it, the more youโ€™ll understand how to optimise your runs for the game.

57.5 Degrees of Pain
Sorry I wasn't clear. I record runs using BackCountry Navigator on the phone as I love a plot on an OS map. However you have to set up a database to record gps tracks on, and usually I just set one up with the date and record the day's activity to be uploaded in the evening. An upload gives you every activity recorded on that database.

Yesterday I uploaded my morning commute in the morning but accidentally recorded my evening commute on the same database. Uploading this presented WSW with a valid morning and evening run, despite having used the morning run before.

So I did the simplest thing and ran the same morning commute this morning, with extra ice. As far as I can see saving yesterday's run as a Route and uploading it today will update non-gps games and leave WSW with the right score.

I hope!

So the WSW map is now correct ITG. I just need to counter your prospective WSW badge in the battle for the final top 10 place in the Virtual Badge league!

Thanks ITG, Night-owl and FDNB! Left for now but I still donโ€™t want to give up!

Fetch has given me very good instructions re: the map!

So the game starts every Monday lunchtime?

That sounded all very complicated, 57.5 but I shall rely on your integrity and the fact that (whisper it), it's only a game and I don't care all that much*

LGJ looking forward to you joining and more of your posts as you get drawn in...

*enough to write a poem about it though ;)

Yes, I hope you get set up LGJ. I also looked at your training and your mileage is high enough to be very competitive in the game.
